In a stock truck, the resistor combined with the glow plugs cause a drop from 24 to 12 volts.
When you are only supplying it with 12 volts, it drops closer to 6 volts(not good).
So, with the elimination of the resistors, you send 12v and get 12 volts. All is good like this.
The first 2 pictures in the first post of this thread shows it. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?32567-What-happened-here-glow-plug-resistor-bypass
Post # 13 said where it is.

It does not sound bad to me. It sounds like you have the resistor bank still installed. It needs to be eliminated. when you convert to 12volts.
The system switches ground to the relay to activate it.
